I did! I also liked the halo design he drew up for me. He looked at the VC and said that 1 pointers on the 2 carat stone would be about the same proportions as the emilya.....My BIGGEST hang up is seeing too much metal. He knows that and assured me he could execute the design I want...
I gave him VC's price so if he can come close, I'm happy to have him make it....
